Chicken chow mein and chicken balls are amazing Server Izy was fantastic Food

wanted to propose with fortune cookies and the staff were so accommodating of the whole scenario! it all went super well and the staff were so friendly and nice and helpful and the food was great too

Love the food and the staff is awesome there

Great food and service.

Great food pretty waitresses clean place

Egg role and chicken balls were good... but chicken chow mean and beef with veg were ok, not great. But the ginger beef wasnt good in my opinion, flavor was not there, and it wasnt super crispy. Probably will try another place next time.

Rude behaviour by receptionist nd unwelcoming too

Courteous, friendly staff, delicious fresh meal, served quickly

This is NOT Chinese food. Totally tasteless, zero flavour. I ordered Szechuan fried rice. I asked the waiter why it does not taste spicy. The reply is they dont add too much flavour because the locals dont like it. I understand they have a demographic to serve who probably dont know what Asian food is supposed to be like. I suggest they remove the word Szechuan from the dish and not mislead those of us who know better. Call it fried rice with wallpaper paste.

absolutely the best Chinese food in Grande Prairie

Amazing food and super friendly staff!!

We had a wonderful server named Izaiah here at Golden Star! She made our dining experience delightful! The food was fresh, large portions and very tasty!

Totally enjoyed our time at Golden Star tonight. We had Izaiah as our server and she was fantastic! Very friendly , kind and attentive to our table. She made our dining experience 5 star !!! The food was good and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

Didnt receive soya sauce with our order. Again. Stop being cheap and throw in a couple packs for each order.

i have given these guys a chance....but still the same no passion on the food..taste like just boiled water...never gonna order from u guys again...sorry

Server was friendly and food was good. Bank on 25 per person. Im not from gp so I cant compare it to other choices but if your looking for a reliable chineese food place this was ok.

Great food and people. Dont know why we didnt try this place before. Will be coming back.

This place used to be THE place back in the day. Atmosphere feels a little cold and uncomfortable with the lighting and aesthetic. But we had a very nice waiter end the food was pretty good! They still have the fish pond which I hope they never get rid of. Food : 4/5

The food is the usual Chinese food. Really good rice and chow mein.

Amazing food as always!! Kid-friendliness: Kids love the fish pond! Food : 4/5 |

We did a takeout order. The food was hot and fresh but not great flavour. Just ok. Beef and broccoli was a bit salty but meat was tender, egg rolls were not that flavourful and had a very thick dough. Gingered beef was quite soggy but had a nice spice. Over all meal was ok but definitely not the best Chinese food weve had. There was 3 of us and we a agreed. Would not order again.

I placed a large order online with short notice for a staff meeting, asking for confirmation the order could be met on such short notice. Golden Star not only fulfilled the order, but the food was tasty, the service above par and delivery very timely. My co-workers enjoyed and conveyed their compliments.

Loved going here back in 2011, arrived back in GP, this was a planned stop for me Yummy Dietary restrictions: At Christmas party of 23, I cannot eat pork, so of the varied plates, I definately gobbled up my share of food.

Wonderful service and great food

We went for supper on new years day the food was very good our server Cavin was amazing really enjoyed the new look will definitely be going back soon Parking: Easy to get parking close to the entrance

Very tasty Chinese food. Went as a group. Our server was most attentive and willing to help us get the best variety.

Ordered my daughter some Chinese for her birthday and they messed up the order and wouldnt even help fix it couldnt care really dont think the new owners were very respectful

Have always loved the food and atmosphere here. Just as good or better after reopening.

If you are going to change every dish then i would suggest you change the name. This is nothing like the food from old owners will not be ordering again.

They sell pretty old food, we ordered a crispy chicken and it was salty and tasted like going very bad, though the waiter was nice and kind

Loved this place, kids new favorite as well. Food is exceptional, the staff are great, and I have leftovers for 2 days.

Kudos to the whole staff especially to Mr. Ronan Avenilla & the servers for promptly taking care of their guests needs. All of them are friendly, professional and accommodative. And of course to the Chefs, for providing a good and tasty food.

Good food and service.

The food was delivered fast and was delicious. The stand out is that the chow mein is the BEST. The perfect amount of sauce and not dry and tasteless. Perfect.

Very friendly staff, the food was great. Will definitely be back again. Definitely recommend this place.

Amazed with the service, portions huge, Ill say probb best place for sit down Chinese in town!

ordered dim sum and hot sour soup....Soup tastes like water with a little vinegar and dim sum is bland and No hot sauce served with meal. Also no spoon for soup. For some reason they serve mustard with dim sum??

Great atmosphere and service

The food is great the decor is the same as 30 years ago when I went there as akid

Im very happy with the food. And the guy was awesome that served us. Try this place out I promise fresh tasty food. Youll enjoy if you like that classy establishment

Good food, good service, clean, quiet, patrons spaced out nicely creating privacy

If you arent cooking tonight and your in GP. Make Golden Star cook you supper this evening. Salt & Pepper Squid is the bomb.

Food was great..

Waited in the entrance for my takeout for 15 minutes did not see one employee. Had to phone 3 more times to get someone to answer. Atrocious service. Never again.

Must say I was not very pleased with the food we received. For instance, the sweet and sour sauce had zero flavour, no sweetness, basically tasted like watered down tomato soup, the fried rice was barely palatable, spring rolls tasted like store bought. This is not the same golden star we use to frequent. I ll try it once more to see if it was an off night. But I m looking for another option in town.

Best Chinese food in grande prairie.I have went everywhere here and this restraunt far surrpasses the rest

Great Chinese food and great service

Foods good, but I stopped going here after a grumpy old lady made a stink about our request not to sit directly adjacent to an occupied table. There was all of three tables being used in the whole restaurants, no need to stack us on top of each other!!!!

Absolutely amazing Chinese food, and great staff as well, looking for good a good family setting, this is the place to go.

Great value and food

Great food, great service, highly recommended!

The best restaurant ever! Been going here for decades. So sad to hear its closing.

I remember going to Golden Star with my family in the 70s numerous times. I would have been about 8. All I ever wanted was the Chicken Fried Rice and to splash my hands in the pond. Sorry about that. I was 8! It was always a pleasure to dine there. It was also one of the few places where my sister and I would not fight. I hear that you are closing after many many years. A true loss to GP. Over the years you have created fine Cuisine and fine lasting memories. I wish you all the best! Thank you for all my cherished memories of Golden Star. Geoff W. Now living in Thailand where I eat a lot of Chicken Fried Rice!

Said open. New owners to lazy to place a sign on the door. Wallys restaurant is said to have taken over. But at 5 pm the doors are locked and no signs giving any information. This was just this past Friday

I love this place every since I was 5

The food was fabulous! We were a group of 6, so we ordered the combination for 6. Nice sized portions, tasty and filling. Our waitress Stacey was very friendly and accommodating! We will be back!

Decent food. Service was fantastic. They just need to stop burning the rice

Great Service.

The food was simply amazing and so was the service. The waitress was 5/5 in every aspect and was kind and courteous. The owner can be seen chit chatting with his customers and joking with them and it s so nice to see. Very nice restaurant and people and delicious food. Shoutout to the kind man who paid for my fiancé & I s food.

Generous helpings not greasy at all but absolutely no flavour if that was garlic pork they forgot the garlic none of the dishes had any flavour totally disappointing would not order from them again

Great food always - cant wait to dine in again!

Awesome food lots to eat 5 star all day long

Please be aware of the food you are being served from this location. I ordered 4 dishes from this location on February 21st and I had dead bugs in my rice dish. I wish I could share the pictures.

Has always been one of my favourite places to get asian food in the city. Have been coming here since I was little with my family and continue to do so starting a tradition with y family.

Delicious and delicious like home cooking.

Best place to go for anyone craving Porkchops, best ever in all other restaurants

Absolute worst tasting, mushy breading on all foods... noodles were inedible... waste of 60.00

Special fried rice and the chow mein were delicous and glad we could support local

Good food and great service, the Golden Star has been serving us for years. Update May 25th, 2021. I served 2 families yesterday with a huge meal for takeout at our home. Its been over 9 months since eating a GS meal. On this occasion, I was very dissatisfied with the quality, taste, and appearance of every entre of the meal. Frankly, much of it was luke warm when we removed it from the packaging. This is not the same restaurant that I have been to for years. I dont advise people to go here. Rating reduced

great food, this is not a fast food place, this is a sit down and have a meal place.

Looking for a dish unique to this restaurant? Try the buttermilk shrimp.

They food is awesome!! The service is top notch!! The plates are very full!! We were a group of 7, ordered for 6 and it would have fed 12 Im sure!!

Service & atmosphere is excellent! Food is good, but pricey. Will definitely be back.

Always delicious, hot and fresh food. Best Chinese food in town and the service is outstanding. A true Grande Prairie gem.

Cant go wrong with the star.

IT ALFULL,I WOULDNT GO BACK.

Food is consistent and the staff unbelievably friendly.

Good

We asked for custom dishes and they were amazing. Thank you! Food was fantastic.

Ordered delivery tonight, was the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten or seen, chicken fried rice was mushy and looks as if it sat there all day, sweet and sour pork was mushy and flavor less, beef and broccoli had no taste, I can keep going.... took it back for a refund which they gladly gave and thats about the only good thing I can say about this restaurant.

Always enjoy their buttermilk shrimp here. Its so delicious.

Found this Grande Prairie hidden gem a couple winters ago when the street was closed but they were still open. It became our group of buddies secret hidden paradise. Dined in a few times, taken out a few times, ordered delivery too many times to count. We order enough for our crew of 6 big burly guys for just over $100 and always have plenty of leftovers for the next night. Weve ordered from almost every Chinese food restaurant from Edmonton to Fort Nelson BC, this is still the best Chinese food Ive had in Western Alberta to Northern BC. Thats saying a LOT because I grew up in Vancouver with some of Canadas finest Asian cuisine. Golden Star feels like home! Recommendation: Beef Chow Foon, little different if youve never had it before but its the BEST noodle dish. You wont be disappointed with Golden Star if you have an open mind (I know everyone has their favorite Chinese food spot and gets used to dishes done a certain way). This is officially the only Chinese food restaurant Ill order from in GP.

Food was disgusting and over priced.

It was ok..too much batter on shrimp..had big order thought Id get some free fried rice just offered 10buck coupon..nah to next visit.

Best Chinese food I ve ever had. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant

Just fantastic!

Great place to eat, very courteous service, food is delicious

Great place, great hosts, but vegetable dishes we ordered lacked flavour.

The best Chinese food in Alberta.

Great food and ambiance

Egg rolls wher cold guess they shoulda microwaved them more otherwise not to bad we will not b going back

Best Chinese food in grande prairie

Dont waste your time. Absolutely disgraceful. Placed a 4 dish order at 1pm for a 530 pick-up. Was told it might be a bit longer as its mothers Day. Figured 15 - 20 minutes extra would be fine. Waited over an hour for a pickup call. Never got one. Go in at 640 and there are three other people waiting for orders that were to be ready at 530. Told them I wasnt paying full price for that long if a wait. They wouldnt do any discount at all. Left after they wouldnt deal without the food. Thanks for ruining mothers Day. Will never go there again.

Oh My Godness you Have to eat Here. WOW. The service beyond amazing. Food is indescribable. The fish in the pond are my favorite, gorgeous koi!

Best Asian/American food, value and atmosphere in GP. Ken is a GP fixture and he cares about his customers and the community.

Seriously!! The best Chinese food we have had in years. So impressive. And the portions were amazing ! Thank you.

Lots of food and very tasty

Fine

The food and service rarely disappoints!

It was clean, the food was good & the atmosphere was very pleasant.

Friendly service. Good food and service.

Ive always loved Golden Stars Loo Mean . We get it every time we go there. Very Good Food.

Service is wonderful. Atmosphere is elegant and gracious.

Awesome

This has to be the worst chinese food I have ever had. The chicken fried rice was just plain rice with maybe 8 little pieces of chicken. The egg roll was just fried dough. Simply awful! Never go back there again!

Food is great, great service.

My favourite Chinese food in GP.

Great food and great service

The used to be the best chinese food in town. Sadly it has fallen to poor. Ordered a take out and it was cold when received. Called to bring it to their attention and it was first not believed, then it was the drivers fault and then i was told that we shouldnt expect hot takeout.

Excellent service. Big portions.

Excellent service, and food. A1!

Good Chinese Restaurant in downtown GP. It has been a staple of the community for decades and the food is always good

I like this place but I do not know if they changed cook, because the rice was not as good as the last time we went.

The Golden Star, indeed, has been one of Grande Prairies go to restaurants for many years. Countless families, here in the peace country and further abroad, have made this restaurant part of their holiday, birthday, anniversary, etc. traditions. Ken, the owner, would always come around, greet his friends, meet new people, socialize a little, if he had a few seconds, then continue flying around the restaurant doing the job of what seemed like 16 employees simultaneously. I must admit that there are two buts. Our extended families have also made the Golden Star a favorite but the last couple of times I went, the recipes used were just not exactly like I favor. The dishes themselves and especially the sauces were just not as tasty. This is coming from someone who cant stomach MSG so, for as long as I can remember, Ive asked for my food to be prepared without the ever-popular Asian additive. Ken would always make sure that that was the case and, in addition, he would always make sure the food came piping hot. Now, in terms of the cooking, some of his chefs, especially the ones with those tradition-bound secret recipes, have come and gone. The second but has to do with decor. The whole restaurant needs a face lift. I fully realize this is incredibly expensive endeavor but and be it as it may, if you, as a entrepreneur, wish to keep attracting an ever-expanding market of sit down customers, you must keep the decor light and modern. Im not advocating here for modern garish style! Indeed all Im saying is a face-lift. So, in summary, personally, I would suggest a renovation and then hope very much that Ken is able to turn to one of those fantastic chefs, hire him or her, and get back to having the best Chinese food and restaurant in the North.

Always excellent service

Excellent food and service, always a family favorite!

Fast friendly service awesome place to go

Excellent Owners & Food been going over 30 years!

Great food, great staff. Almost 40 years Ive been going there now!

Bit pricey but food is excellent

Friendly service. Great prices. Delicious food

Good service, food was good

honestly i ordered and got my food in less then 3 minutes kinda concerning. i get it be fast but don t make it seem like you just have piles of food in the back waiting. sort of weird? doesn t make it feel fresh ect. and the menu is way too large, top restaurant owners say having a huge menu will take away from your authenticity. good food no doubt but just seems weird?

Food and service were amazing

Very good food and friendly

As remembered in every way. If new to GP, go now, so 25 years from now you can take your grandkids there and reminisce about how nothing has changed still.

This restaurant is huge. Food and service are elite. Prices are a bit higher for food. Dinner for one is for $27 including taxes.

Although the service was amazing and the decor presents a nice atmosphere, our actual food came up short. I m uncertain if it s the cause of old pipes or perhaps the dishware being used, but all of our food seemed to be tainted with extra tappy tasting water. I could tell the food would have been really good had it not all had undertones of this old metallic taste. I hope this is something that will be noticed and addressed as I would absolutely come back otherwise!

Still to this day, the best Chinese food in the city. Weather its take out or dine in, the food is incredible quality. The restaraunt decor is like dining in an 80s movie, the service is excellent and the portions are large.

I am never disappointed by the food or service.

There are plenty of good, bad, and mediocre Chinese food places in GP. None of them like this. I have never personally seen a restaurant this bad until now. We 3 diners - yesterday night werent the types to waste, or even to agree with one another - but we all ate 1/3 of our plates and threw it and all the leftovers out. The rice was cooked in rancid grease and you could taste fish and burnt starch, the sweet and sour tasted like chewing on aluminum foil, and the dry ribs were moisture less grey with the odd SOUR (as in ROTTEN) one. I am severely understating how bad it was, i will never forget this place and if ever diagnosed with a disease Im sure the this place will flash through my mind. I am really, and I mean really disappointed with the local food inspectors. I would rather eat at a random restaurant from Kitchen nightmares TV series.

Good food. Great service. Been going there since 1972 ?? Well a long time Best in town..

Fantastic service and great food

First time posting , I dont know how this restaurant is getting good reviews . I ordered Singapore noodle and wonton soup and Ive been to many Chinese food places over the years and this food was the worst absolutely no seasoning very very bland. Singapore noodle is suppose to be a strong flavour and Im not even sure it had curry on it at all . Dont recommend.

I have been going to this restaurant for over 20 years. Always good food, good service, and at a fair price.

Very nice experience, service was great

Excellent food excellent staff excellent customer service. Koi fish in the pond a really interesting and relaxing :-) the price is appropriate and the portions are massive :-) love this place very much for many many years!

Best Chinese food around

As always, the food was excellent, hot and tasty, and the service was awesome, fast and friendly, a Neal here is always worth a visit
